him in every way. 2He said to the senior servant in his
household, the one in charge of all that he had, Put

14May it be that when I say to a young woman, Please let

down your jar that I may have a drink, and she says,
Drink, and Ill water your camels toolet her be the one
you have chosen for your servant Isaac. By this I will know
that you have shown kindness to my master.

15 Before he had finished praying, Rebekah came out with

her jar on her shoulder. She was the daughter of Bethuel
son of Milkah, who was the wife of Abrahams brother Nahor.
16The woman was very beautiful, a virgin; no man had ever
slept with her.

49Now if you will show kindness and faithfulness to my master,

tell me; and if not, tell me, so I may know which way to turn.
50 Laban and Bethuel answered, This is from the Lord; we can
say nothing to you one way or the other. 51Here is Rebekah; take
her and go, and let her become the wife of your masters son, as
the Lord has directed. 52 When Abrahams servant heard what
they said, he bowed down to the ground before the Lord.
53 Then the servant brought out gold and silver jewelry and
articles of clothing and gave them to Rebekah; he also gave costly
gifts to her brother and to her mother.
